Unsure of when to use "aún"

Unsure of when to use "aún"

I'm unsure of when to use "aún" , which if I'm not mistaken, means more of something. For e.g. "él tiene aún más arroz."

And using "es la más". e.g. "Esta casa es la más grande".

thanks much!

aún (with an accent) means still (as in, they are still here), or when used with más it can mean even (even more)

aun (without the accent) means even (even though, even then, etc.)

Nice answer :) and aún with the accent can also mean 'yet' in negative sentences eg, aún no - not yet :) - Kiwi-Girl, Nov 28, 2011
